The dirty Lunch clothes hamper was overflowing next to where Eddie sleeps. He didn't seem to mind but it was time. Google said there was a laundromat in Sister Bay a couple miles to our north. Drove through town, didn't see it, drove through the other direction and there it was, in the rear of an auto repair garage. Yup, combination auto repair/laundromat. Clothes done, it was looking a little like rain so we drove up the peninsula to check our Ellison Bay, Gills Rock and Northport. On the way to Northport was a stretch where the roadbuilders must have gotten bored with building another straight road. There didn't seem to be any geographical reason for it, but I wasn't complaining. Lunch at the Viking Grill in Ellsion Bay included "necker-nocker bean soup". Nope, the waitress couldn't explain it either, but it was loaded with bacon and veggies and was good.
Gills Rock, where the teevee antennas are almost as big as the houses:
Yeah, baby:
Even Ho's have to have something to do with their spare time:
Apparently even Klenke's couldn't fix this old Chevy pickup:
When's the last time the gas station attendant cleaned your windshield for you? Come to Ellison Bay, WI. Shoot, he probably checked the oil too.
This evening we went to a traditional Door County Fish Boil at Pelletier's in Fish Creek. A big boiling vat of salt water with potatoes for 30 minutes, onions for 15, and whitefish steaks for 10 minutes, finishes off with a "boil over" induced by fuel oil in the fire. Spectacular and good eating too. With cherry pie and a Fat Tire draft beer, life was good.
After dinner the three of us took a stroll through town and I can sense that there is a real problem developing. While Eddie is fantastic at attracting chicks, the chicks are so busy paying attention to him that they don't even realize that I am around. Bummer.
